We picked here for a sporting event. The staff was extremely helpful since we needed a sofa bed for one child due to a last minute change. While it is all sold out they managed to let us check in earlier, and get some breakfast while we were waiting for the new room to be ready. The location was convenient as well, you can take bus to Bank street, or walk to the Stratford station for the tube.
